Unqualified Behaviour Teaching Assistant
We’re recruiting on behalf of a specialist Pupil Referral Unit in Knowsley that supports young people who’ve struggled in mainstream education due to medical, social, emotional, or behavioural needs. This is a setting where relationships matter, progress is personal, and every day brings the chance to make a real impact.
This is a great opportunity for a new or experienced educator to become a familiar face in a school where staffing, culture and community go hand in hand.
You’ll be joining a supportive, inclusive school that puts wellbeing and community at the centre of everything they do. It’s a good fit for someone who wants to become a familiar face in a school that values consistency.
About the Role
As an Unqualified Behaviour TA, you’ll work alongside experienced staff to:
- Support pupils with emotional regulation and behaviour strategies
- Build trust and consistency through 1:1 and small group work
- Help students re-engage with learning and develop resilience
- Model positive behaviour and encourage reflection
- Be part of a team that celebrates small wins and long‑term growth
No formal qualifications are required—just the right attitude, strong communication skills, and a genuine commitment to helping young people thrive.
Who We’re Looking For
This role suits someone who:
- Has experience in youth work, care, or education (formal or informal)
- Is calm, patient, and confident in challenging situations
- Understands the importance of empathy, boundaries, and consistency
- Wants to learn and grow within a specialist setting
Benefits

- FREE Educator Wellbeing resources and access to our community hub – because we believe supported staff stay longer and make a bigger impact.
